    What about making your 4th of July event telling us what material your kilts are made of? That would be very special indeed.

    Material

    Most of Our Kilts are Acrylic which are synthetic fibers made from a polymer with an average molecular weight of ~100,000. To be called acrylic in the U.S., the polymer must contain at least 85% acrylonite monomer. Fibers are produced in a range of deniers, typically from 1 to 15. End uses include sweaters, hand-knitting yarns, rugs...

    Acrylic is lightweight, soft, and warm, with a wool-like feel. It dyes very well and has excellent colorfastness. It is resilient, retains its shape, and resists shrinkage and wrinkles. It is quite varied in form and sometimes has an appearance similar to wool or cotton.
    Acrylic has recently been used in clothing as an alternative to cashmere, due to the similar feeling of the materials.
    Acrylic is resistant to moths, oils, and chemicals, and is very resistant to deterioration from sunlight exposure.
    ------------
    We also have a shipment of 70% wool 30% polyester kilts coming in in about 2 weeks
    -----------
    Material we offer acrylic, Wool/poly/, poly/viscose,

    SO THERE IS YOUR 4th OF JULY SPECIAL

    Updating the website would be special, or paying one of the multitudes of members to take care of it would be nice as well. (Remember, they take payment in kilts!)

    Well, the information on the material is special... however, as a newby wanting to order a second kilt (have to get a second kilt, before I can get a third) and with the obligatory restraint to spending I was sort of thinking about a different kind of special.

    Glad to see your thinking about something, I guess I'll just keep checking here and the website every 20 minutes or so between now and the 4th.

    Cheers
